This place was a fantastic home base for my friends and I during our trip - the proximity to the grocery store and the lovely scenery were all awesome.
The cabin was clean and well supplied. The decor was not updated, but the location was great for this mountain newbie. The view was pleasing, and I appreciated having neighbors and main road near by. The road noise acceptable for this city girl.
We had a great time at this property. It’s comfortable and well appointed with all we needed to enjoy our stay. And the location is close to everything Arnold has to offer. Would definitely come back!
Outstanding cabiny feel with clean and comfortable accomodations. Close access to stores and restaurants and losts of walking areas around the neighborhood. Excellent communication and accessibility from host!
Very comfortable house with all the amenities we needed. Appreciated that the host allowed us to bring our dog - he loved it! Easy to check-in and good communication with host.
The house is a lovely mountain get away. Easy to access and close to all the services and activities the mountains have to offer. Beautiful view of the meadow is a bonus.
Our stay was great! The house was extremely clean and had everything we needed for our time in the mountains. Communication with the host was easy and the check in/ out process was very streamline. Would stay again if we visit the area.
Beautiful, comfortable mountain get away. We had a few hiccups, but the hosts were very responsive and worked with us to resolve those issues. We would book this house again!
We loved the location of this property….it was close to a shopping center, as well as more options in Murphys. The place was cool, quiet, and had the things we needed to cook a few meals and rest after hiking and fishing nearby. We will definitely be back!
Family Time In the Snow,,,,,,My family and I again had a wonderful time at Scott's cabin.The location is fantastic and close to everything. The cabin is spacious and exceptionally clean and well cared for. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals and the cabin itself just feels super comfortable. Thanks Scott for another memorable weekend.
Enjoyable stay close to shopping and parks. Easy and prompt responses with management. Stayed during snow. House was inviting, warm, and comfortable. Dog friendly.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this is lovely, rustic cabin with a beautiful view. The kitchen was one of the best equipped I have used. and the large living area gives plenty of space if you have a large group. The back patio is wonderful for relaxing. We even had an unexpected visit from a bear late one night!
This home had what we needed for a stay in Arnold during ski season. Living room/kitchen/dining area was a nice large room. Not super fancy/modern but functional bathrooms /kitchen.
We spent a couple nights at this cabin , it’s well maintained, clean and the location is very close to shopping markets , restaurants and Big Tree state park . The most convenient aspect for us was that the Tesla supercharger was very close to where we stayed so that was a huge relief!! The hosts were very responsive and we enjoyed our cabin experience!! Arnold is a great place to rent a cabin and enjoy !!
Very spacious and comfortable place for a girlfriends' getaway....well stocked, clean, and easy access to Lake Alpine, Calveras Big Trees State Park, and Murphys. We hiked, ate well, and played cards in the evenings by the fireplace. We highly recommend it! bhi
Our 2 generation family stayed at Scott’s place and had a wonderful time! Perfect floor for a crawling 9 month old. Scott was super responsive and allowed an early check in that helped our travel plans a lot! The location is very close to the market and White Pines lake. Thanks Scott for a place to create great family memories!

We had an absolutely wonderful time staying at this cabin! The place was cozy, well-equipped, and had everything we needed to feel right at home. We spent hours playing in the snow, building snowmen, and enjoying the winter wonderland right outside our door. It was the perfect setting for quality time with family. The peaceful surroundings, combined with the warmth and charm of the cabin, made this trip unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to create lasting memories. Highly recommend this spot!
We had a very pleasant stay. We were gone most days but came back to the house to relax. It was close to a grocery store which was convenient. Our host answered text really quickly. Thank you for your hospitality.
